I need to go back and play that. I put it on hold shortly after release in the hopes they’d polish it up. I’ve heard they did, but I haven’t gone back.

I was about to say “hey, I like their UI”… but then I remembered by I generally don’t play casters. It’s because you are right.
Those are big ones. Also, no way to disable chromatic aberration (a known migraine trigger), no DLSS/FSR, and broken anticheat that blocks online play if you dare to fix those problems yourself.
As long as major games like Elden Ring are shipping without basic PC features/settings, I would say the industry is definitely not treating it as mainstream.
It’s Asus.
It runs Windows.
It means nothing for gaming.
ChatGPT 4o is the top dog right now, by a lot.
Wow, and it’s made with Godot!?
Flawless Ultrawide can also be used to fix most of those things, but in either case, EAC will block you from online play… which is, like, half the fun of a FS game.
The gameplay is perfect. But how about just fixing the PC version with some basic things like…
You know, basic, fundamental PC features.
Mac has always felt more like mine than Windows. Nothing has changed there.
And neither holds a candle to the pure, blinding, white light that is Linux. GNOME, KDE, the world is your oyster and the desktop is your choice.
Series S strikes again.
With interest?
Two part answer: yes and no.
Default Straps: Bad
The included straps leave all the weight at the front of your head, so you will feel neck strain as a result of the constant weight imbalance. This is a common problem with HMDs… it’s not the weight, but the fact that it’s not balanced, forcing your neck muscles to compensate. Additionally, the design relies on facial pressure to keep the HMD in place… and while the “light shield” is not uncomfortable, it’s still pressure.
Aftermarket Straps: Good
HOWEVER, we are starting to see some creative after-market solutions. I am currently using a BOBOVR M3 Mini with some 3D-printed AVP adapters. To fix the weight balance problem I put adhesive tire weights on the back as a counter-balance (same thing I did with PSVR2). With this solution, it’s infinitely more comfortable than either standard strap… no neck strain, dramatically reduced face pressure… I can go all day. You can get the 3d printed adapters on Etsy, if you’re curious.
As for the eye strain/vision: Ordinarily I need reading glasses for normal things, but on the AVP I don’t need anything. There is no eye strain and everything is crisp and sharp and clear… without any Rx inserts.
Not to rain on the parade, but as long as we allow the reality-sized hole that is non-profits owning for-profits, this isn’t something I can get terribly excited about.
Ultrawide support? If there were no new content, I would pay just for the ultrawide support.
Except it will be infected with a Ubisoft launcher and Denuvo malware and I do not pay for anything with Denuvo filth in it.
Emulation worked (and still works) great when Apple switched from x86 to ARM. It can be done.
Nonsense like this is why I no longer use Ubuntu (or anything else downstream of Canonical, or anything with Snaps).
That’s a defining characteristic of console gaming, though. Even things like performance vs quality modes didn’t exist until this generation. It’s one of the reasons most PC gamers aren’t also console gamers.
